They observed that she was transporting a massive black bag that was wrapped with a souvenir.
As officers pulled the car over and inspected the vehicle, they discovered the woman sitting in the back seat, with two black bags tote bags as well as a Lego box. The police later found out — after conducting an investigation the contents of the box contained about 15,000 colored pills encased in black tape, and was surrounded by Lego bricks.
New Jersey resident, Latesha Bush 48, was taken into custody at the scene and accused of criminal possession of controlled substances in the first and third degree. The suspect is believed to have hired the vehicle out of New Jersey to the Garden State prior to being caught.
The DEA said that initial testing of the pills with multiple colors “indicated the presence of fentanyl” and they believed that the drugs were sourced from Mexico. Drug agencies also stated that these pills had been marked using “M” and “30” to resemble oxycodone Hydrochloride 30 mg pills.
